Members shoepatcher Posted October 31, 2022 Members Report Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) Is there any numbers on the cover on the horn? It would either be an 81 0r 88. Also, max. stitch length should be 7.5mm glenn Edited October 31, 2022 by shoepatcher Quote

I don't have any 81 needles so running it with a 135x17 mounted low right now. Sews like a dream, but pretty far from an optimal solution, haha... Quote
Members shoepatcher Posted October 31, 2022 Members Report Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) Needles available on line or from Toledo Sewing. You need to determine the class first. The 1 and 2 use system 81 needles, the 3 uses system 88. Can we see a pic of the machine? glenn Edited October 31, 2022 by shoepatcher Quote

And I haven't found anyone in Europe offering 81 needles aside from size 90 which is a bit to small to be very useful. And here are some pictures and a demo video. https://photos.app.goo.gl/kayQktM8KSnmLwe5A Quote

Members Farmfield Posted November 4, 2022 Author Members Report Posted November 4, 2022 Just a question, is the 200 or RPX the never model? Quote
Members Constabulary Posted November 4, 2022 Members Report Posted November 4, 2022 200 is the newer model - followed by the 8345 and then the 8346 which is the current model.
